Description
Hailed by the Chicago Tribune as a “vocalist of substance more devoted to song than to image,” Lizz Wright has frequently and happily moved beyond the sometimes restrictive category of “jazz singer” to excel in a multiplicity of styles including pop, soul, and gospel. Her acclaimed Joe Henry–produced album Grace (Concord Music, 2017) was hailed as “a lulling yet ringing affirmation of Wright's deeply rooted connection to the South and its music. Although it was recorded in Hollywood – with Henry's associates among the core and ancillary musicians – and consists primarily of covers, the album is Southern through and through, and as personal as any of Wright's previous recordings, with resolute faith, enduring romantic devotion, and earthly gratitude among the prominent themes.” (Andy Kellman, AllMusic) In addition to her own albums, Lizz Wright has appeared on recordings by David Sanborn, Danilo Perez, Regina Carter, and Jakob Dylan.
